“The best decision of my life was to walk through the doors of the Arce Law Group.”
The best decision of my life was to walk through the doors of the Arce Law Group. There is so much to say and not enough time or characters to fully describe my satisfaction, but overall it was a life changing experience. Christine, Bryan, and Cayetana treated me like I was family. They were open, honest, empathetic, and extremely supportive. Truly a dream team. They were sweet and authentically caring to the point that I never felt alone. Their attention to detail was on point throughout the entire process, and I got the results that I was hoping for. They exceeded my expectations by going above and beyond to advocate for me. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars because the way they championed on my behalf was out of this world. I would not hesitate to refer their services.- F M -

Experienced Sexual Harassment Representation
Sexual harassment can create a toxic and overwhelming work environment, impacting not only your job but your overall well-being. These cases are often complex, and employers may attempt to downplay or dismiss serious concerns. That’s why it’s critical to have experienced legal representation on your side.
At Arcé Law Group, we handle a wide range of sexual harassment claims and tailor our approach to the specifics of each case. We work closely with our clients to understand what happened, gather the necessary evidence, and build a strong, strategic case. New York State law and the New York City Human Rights Law offer some of the broadest protections available, covering employees regardless of employer size and encompassing conduct by supervisors, coworkers, clients, and third parties.
We represent employees in matters involving:
- Quid pro quo harassment, where job benefits are tied to inappropriate conduct
- Hostile work environments created by repeated or severe behavior
- Retaliation after reporting harassment or participating in an investigation
- Unwanted advances, comments, or inappropriate workplace behavior
- Harassment by supervisors, coworkers, clients, or third parties
- Failure of employers to properly investigate or address complaints
Our goal is not only to stop the behavior but also to hold employers accountable. We pursue meaningful outcomes for our clients, whether through negotiation or litigation.
Filing a Sexual Harassment Lawsuit in New York
Reporting harassment to your employer’s HR department is not the same as filing a legal claim. Employees who want to sue for sexual harassment in New York have several paths available, and the right one depends on the specific facts and laws involved.
Depending on the circumstances, a worker may file with the New York State Division of Human Rights, the New York City Commission on Human Rights, or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, filing a charge with the EEOC is required before bringing a federal court action. The New York State Human Rights Law, by contrast, allows employees to file directly in state court without first going through a state agency. We also litigate in the U.S. District Courts for the Southern, Eastern, and Northern Districts of New York and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit when the facts and strategy call for federal court.
Filing deadlines vary by claim and forum. The New York City Commission on Human Rights allows three years to file a gender-based harassment complaint, while federal deadlines can be significantly shorter. A worker should obtain case-specific advice before signing any settlement, releasing claims, or allowing a deadline to pass. We provide that guidance during a free, confidential consultation.
What to Do Before You Contact a Sexual Harassment Lawyer
Taking a few steps before your first conversation with a sexual harassment attorney in New York can strengthen your position. Start by preserving relevant communications: emails, text messages, direct messages, photographs, schedules, performance evaluations, compensation records, and any written complaints you have made.
A personal chronology can also be valuable. Write down dates, locations, participants, witnesses, what was said or done, any reports you made, and any employment changes that followed. If your hours were cut, your role was changed, or your responsibilities shifted after you reported misconduct, document that too. Retaliation, including termination, demotion, exclusion, or undesirable assignments after opposing harassment, may itself be a separate legal claim.
We represent employees at every professional level, from entry-level workers to C-suite executives. Whatever your role, our team can evaluate your situation and explain your options during a free initial consultation.
Additional Cases We Handle
While sexual harassment is a primary focus, Arcé Law Group provides comprehensive representation across a wide range of employment law matters. Workplace issues are often interconnected, and many cases involve multiple violations that need to be addressed together.
We take a strategic, big-picture approach to evaluate and pursue applicable aspects of your case.
Our firm handles cases involving:
- Whistleblower claims, including reporting illegal or unethical conduct
- Whistleblower retaliation, where employees face consequences for speaking up
- ADA claims and workplace violations involving disability discrimination or failure to accommodate
- Employment discrimination based on race, gender, age, religion, or other protected characteristics
- Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) claims and investigations
- General employment law disputes, including wrongful termination and workplace misconduct
